Name of Fangirl: Jamie
Fangirl’s Occupation: Jamie has a bachelor’s degree in English and currently works for the best used book store chain in the U.S.!
What is her Fangirl interest?
Jamie is a Star Wars fanatic. She has close to 50 different Star Wars T-shirts and a very impressive collection of memorabilia. She also loves LEGO (especially Star Wars sets!), Labyrinth and anything by Jim Henson, and The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings.
Why did you decide to shine the spotlight on this Fangirl?
Jamie is a wonderful friend who deserves the Fangirl spotlight! Jamie and I became friends through attending Chicago Comic Con years ago. She is a very caring Fangirl, making sure her friends are taking care of themselves at cons (because let’s face it, sometimes we forget to eat or sleep)! Another thing I love about Jamie is her willingness to try out other fandoms she is unfamiliar with. I’ll never forget how much fun we had at an anime convention I was attending and asked if she’d like to come along. She dived right in, genuinely excited to experience a new fandom.
How does this Fangirl express her fandom?
It is very rare for Jamie not to be wearing a Star Wars T-shirt. She also has Star Wars jewelry and accessories (some custom-made!). Her previous car’s license plate was DTHSTR 2 (Death Star 2), and her new car’s will be GLD LDR 3 (Gold Leader 3). She has some kind of Star Wars item on her person at all times–be it a T-shirt, purse, wallet, earrings or an iPhone case. She’s always showing her Fangirl pride!
What is her favorite quote or personal motto?
“Stay on target.”
What is her favorite Fangirl item that she cannot live without?
Jamie has an Artoo action figure that she takes with her on vacations and road trips…anytime she needs a good luck co-pilot. She even took it with her to the hospital when she needed to have a couple of surgeries.
